You were the only one who
I could spill my guts out to
Is hhat you said to me
When the men in blue come and took you away
But it's not your fault
Your mama never thought you should know better
Don't you worry Curt
I won't let them hurt you
I won't let them hurt you now

I remember when half dead said
It ain't all about where you're from
But really where you're at
So we gotta get past all that for now
But it's not your fault
Your father never thought to send the letter
You better hurry, Curt

They've got this place surrounded
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I won't let them hurt you now

I knew it was too late
When I saw them peeking through the window
Maybe I can talk them down
While you go slipping out the back door
I told you time and time again
It doesn't have to be like this
But no, there ain't nothing I can do

They've got this place surrounded
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I ain't gonna let them through
I won't let them hurt you
I won't let them hurt you now

They've got this place surrounded
They've got this place surrounded
There's nothing I can do

They've got this place surrounded (no, oh, no, oh)
They've got this place surrounded
There's nothing I can do

They've got this place surrounded
There's nothing I can do
They've got this place surrounded
